Description from store Read Aloudは、テキスト読み上げ(TTS)技術を使用してウェブページのテキストを音声に変換します。ニュースサイト、ブログ、ファンフィクション、出版物、教科書、学校教材など、さまざまなウェブサイトで利用できます。Read Aloudは、読み書きを学習中のお子様や、失読症などの学習障害のある方など、コンテンツを読むよりも聞くことを好むユーザーを支援します。 Read Aloudでは、ブラウザが提供するネイティブ音声に加え、Google Wavenet、Amazon Polly、IBM Watson、Microsoft Azure、OpenAIなどのクラウドプロバイダーが提供するAI音声など、様々なテキスト読み上げ音声から選択できます。クラウドベースの音声を利用するには、アプリ内課金やAPIキーの取得が必要になる場合があります。 Read Aloudは、PDF、Googleドキュメント、Google Playブックス、Amazon Kindle、EPUB(epubread.comの優れたEPUBReader拡張機能経由)を読み上げることができます。 Read Aloud を使用するには、読み上げたいウェブページに移動し、ブラウザメニューの Read Aloud アイコンをクリックします。ショートカットキーの ALT + P、ALT + O、ALT + カンマ、ALT + ピリオドを使用して拡張機能を起動することもできます。テキストが選択されている場合は、Read Aloud は選択されたテキストのみを読み上げます。また、テキスト選択範囲を右クリックし、コンテキストメニューから Read Aloud を開始することもできます。 音声、読み上げ速度、ピッチを変更したり、テキストのハイライトを有効にするには、拡張機能ポップアップの歯車ボタンをクリックしてオプションページに移動します(歯車ボタンを表示するには、再生を停止する必要があります)。拡張機能アイコンを右クリックして、コンテキストメニューからオプションページにアクセスすることもできます。 拡張機能ポップアップには、ポップアップウィンドウのサイズ、フォントサイズを拡大/縮小したり、ダークモードを切り替えたりするボタンがあります。 Read Aloud はオープンソースプロジェクトです。バグ修正や翻訳にご協力いただける場合は、GitHub ページ (https://github.com/ken107/read-aloud) をご覧ください。

Latest reviews

  • (2025-07-18) Nathan Guiger: Stopped working unless I leave it on auto voice select, utter garbage
  • (2025-07-15) John Weiss: Powerful, but not lightweight. Access to many free natural voices! Works great.
  • (2025-07-10) Sissy Cooley: Horrible! Uses zero recognition of grammar and punctuation. Reads everything (regardless of speed setting) as one long run on sentence, making it impossible to follow or comprehend the material.
  • (2025-07-10) eDee Bruns: I highlight an area, but it starts at the beginning of the Google doc every time - completely useless. It's like it doesn't realize it's only supposed to read the highlighted area.
  • (2025-07-09) Jose Javier Perez Rosa: Love it! This is what I needed for college textbooks. Once again, thank you!
  • (2025-07-08) Nathaniel Honomichl: voice is very clear doesn't lag crome on my low end device and actually pronounces words very clearly
  • (2025-07-03) Jordan: This Read Aloud Extension is good not the best. I'm using 1 AI voice on this extension that's worked and sound good. This extension is at least good enough I'll keep using it
  • (2025-06-30) Alejandro Bermudez: yeah. it works. but its not good.
  • (2025-06-29) Samuel Robinson: Works as intended.
  • (2025-06-26) Vedaant Upadhyay: it's just good
  • (2025-06-26) the mathias: (Broken Again) I use this nearly every day, but lately, the voice just stops before reading a single full sentence. It gives the Error of "Timeout, TTS never started, try picking another voice?" but it's the same voice i have been used the entire time. and it does the same when i click on the "Test" button
  • (2025-06-25) Mirrani: What has happened to my beloved read aloud?! I used to use this all the time, for just about everything. Now it reads a couple words and shuts down. Sure, it tells you to change voices and try again, but from what I've worked out it does this with every voice. Bummer. This was my most trusted add on to help me read pages that my old eyes are too tired to squint at any more. Super bummed. Please, please developer, consider fixing this issue.
  • (2025-06-19) Leon Hoang: This extensions used to be good, but now it is horrendous. Constantly requiring to grant permission from Google to read. Sometime the extensions stucked in a loop where even afer following the instruction on the google site to grant permisison, it asked for permission again. Absolute trash now.
  • (2025-06-19) Cheuk nam Wu: not accurate
  • (2025-06-18) Paul Greatrex: Stops after a couple of words-no use to me.
  • (2025-06-15) Sathwik Krishna Kunapareddy: Works well with almost all websites. The only one I had trouble with was Amazon's Kindle. It's only reading the first 10-15 characters of a line and skipping to the next line where the same happens until the end of the page. I hope that gets fixed.
  • (2025-06-14) Hiuyi: Great for a FREE TTS reader. Customizable voices, and speeds. I can open the text in a separate window and enjoy the TTS at my own pace. Sentences being read are highlighted, so you can easily keep up. Amazing for reading Google Play Books, automatically flips the page.
  • (2025-06-10) Omid Hassasfar: Most of the time, can not read and finish the highlighted sentence.
  • (2025-06-10) Aleksi Vasquez: This extension worked fine for me when I downloaded it last year. Now it won't even access the pages I try to have it read for me, no matter what I do. It stops suddenly after reading 3 or 4 words, sometimes not even that many. I'm very disappointed since it used to work. Needs updating BADLY.
  • (2025-06-09) Amy Glass: cannot access contents of the page extension manifest error the second time i try to use tts on the same website. annoying.
  • (2025-06-09) T: What a terrible robovoice. This is not up to modern standards.
  • (2025-06-08) Nexmeift: skips around pages too much.
  • (2025-06-06) games games: The app is just awesome. Huge thanks to the creators! I suggest considering adding Elevenlabs voices.
  • (2025-06-05) Texas Doehring: The only text to speech option I've found that works as of June 6th 2025
  • (2025-06-04) isabella smith: i've been using read aloud for, probably, 5 years now. i have always used google uk female voice. sometimes, like once every 4 or so months, that voice on the extension will stop working and glitches out (reading only the first few words of a sentence over and over again or not starting at all) and sometimes restarting my computer helps. if not, usually this will only last 12 or so hours and would start working again. however this time it been down for over two days. the only voice that works is the default voice which i hate. i love read aloud. no alternative i've tried does what i need it to like this one. i don't want super natural sounding voices. i don't want ai. i want google uk female voice pitched and speed up just a tad. i want a pop up that i can close if i want, or leave up and have it scroll through the text for me. i don't want to have to click every individual paragraph to get it to start reading. read aloud does everything i need it to, and more. i just wish it was more reliable.
  • (2025-06-02) nina liu: this worked pretty well for a couple of weeks until last week, when it suddenly won't play unless you only the microsoft voices, which are horribly bad quality. if you want to use a different voice, it will not load the tts. this makes it extremely frustrating to use. hopefully they'll fix this issue
  • (2025-06-02) Kevin Trejo: Hey i love the product i am using google tts api's but for some reason it looks like the extension has castillian Spanish twice. Could you please update it and include ES-US thats how i see that google has it
  • (2025-06-01) Fluffey: works again :) EDIT: nvm stopped working again
  • (2025-06-01) Roger Kenco: not bad, however I am looking for a more natural voice...
  • (2025-05-30) Quartus Thomas: I'm a simple man. I learn better while reading and listening to text. All I wanted was something to use at a moments notice online or offline. Especially offline this extension can be used with offline HTML webpages.
  • (2025-05-21) Mohamed Magdy: the voice and audio quality are bad
  • (2025-05-20) Ryan Miller: Lacks basic features like being able to pause when reading.
  • (2025-05-19) blah blah blah: mine didnt work on pdfs
  • (2025-05-15) David Metcalfe: This had a lot of potential, but between the developer's paternalistic hesitancy around adding more expensive paid voices, and general bugginess and issues with the extension itself, I can't in good faith recommend this one anymore. Alternatives like "Human Reader, powered by ElevenLabs" are far better out of the box and within the same typical price range.
  • (2025-05-12) San Rezaei: The quality as poor as I'd rather to read it myself.
  • (2025-05-09) Sidd zaz: I was using this extension without realizing that it collects sensitive information like passwords, credentials, security question, or personal identification number (PIN) among others. I would stay away from these.
  • (2025-05-01) Manolo: Easily one of the best text-to-speech extension! However, I hope the developers would consider: (i) Word highlighting. Currently only paragraphs are highlighted. This would be very useful as it would allow users to not only follow along what is being read (if they want to), but also, to immediately identify where they left off after a pause. (ii) Allowing repositioning of the Pop up window - by way of dragging it to anywhere on a web-page.
  • (2025-05-01) Lindsey Camden: Does not work on google docs, only read the bold text and title page
  • (2025-04-30) Frey Waelcyrge: It only reads a couple words and repeat them. Is it the default or not working anymore?
  • (2025-04-29) ted butthole: They just updated it to fix the issue it was having with Opera. Don't know when they're gonna push the v2.20.0 update on here but I just downloaded it off GitHub and loaded it as an unpacked extension.
  • (2025-04-29) Aurora Borealis: Stopped working like many have said. Hope the issue is resolved though. This extension is extremely helpful.
  • (2025-04-28) C: started out great and worked for a while but will no longer do any more than three voices for me
  • (2025-04-28) Paul Butler: Works for me. Make sure you download a Piper voice for better quality than the default.
  • (2025-04-28) Abby Rogers: Just stopped working and will not function.
  • (2025-04-28) Oliver Jones: Not working. Thank you @Sophie Weber for recommending: Riddr. Riddr works great, and unlike Speechify it is free.
  • (2025-04-28) Jacob Withers: No longer working.
  • (2025-04-28) Madison Jones: Just like many of the previous reviews from this past week: the extension suddenly stopped working entirely. It reads the first sentence then loads and loads, repeating the sentence a few times. Very disappointing. I hope this issue is fixed bc I refuse to pay for speechify lol.
  • (2025-04-27) Lars Kuerten: Doesnt work april 25
  • (2025-04-25) Sophie Weber: This extension does not work anymore, you should try Riddr
  • (2025-04-24) Alex Pilotin: why is it saying cannot create new tab on fullscreen mode im not even on full screen
